Chapter 194
Butei Charter Article 9: Butei shall not kill under any circumstances.
In reality, this wasn’t the original content of the Butei Charter.
“The people in this world must spread their wings and fight together, regardless of race or nationality.”
This was the content of the International Butei Charter Article 9. However, in some countries that uphold human rights, this particular article of the Butei Charter was amended to include a prohibition on killing.
The country Fang Li was currently in was one of those countries.
Violation of this charter was equivalent to breaking Butei law and would be considered a crime, leading to punishment. Hence, even though it was only enforced in certain countries, the Butei Charter was still recognized by the International Butei Bureau.
As someone who had obtained a Butei license in this country, Fang Li had no reason to violate it because the consequences would be severe.
Facing legal consequences was just one aspect. After all, due to the arrangement in the Main God’s Dimension, Fang Li, although originally an ordinary person from a regular high school, was recognized as an international student from China due to his name.
Even if he broke the Butei law in this land, he wouldn’t be sentenced here directly. Instead, he would be sent to the highest international court and dealt with according to international law, unlike the locals who would be sentenced immediately.
However, even so, Fang Li would inevitably have his Butei license revoked.
As a result, not only would Fang Li need to leave Butei High and be unable to continue Main Quest 2, but he would also lose his Rank Rating due to the revocation of his Butei license, causing Main Quest 1 to fail directly.
Moreover, Fang Li’s title also prohibited him from violating the Butei Charter while wearing it. If he did, the title would become void. With so many serious consequences, Fang Li had no reason to knowingly violate the charter.
However, just moments ago, Fang Li had opened fire without the slightest hesitation, causing the vehicle to crash into a lamppost and explode.
If there were people inside the vehicle, Fang Li would truly be out of the game. But still, Fang Li had opened fire without the slightest hesitation. He couldn’t believe that someone capable of taming near-extinct Caucasian Silver Wolves and acting as the mastermind behind so many wolves would die so easily.
In fact, as Fang Li had expected, there was no trace of anyone inside the burning vehicle. Afterward, Fang Li called Butei High’s office phone and requested that the school dispatch a Repier Butei to gather evidence.
Unfortunately, the outcome was fruitless.
…
“Li-Kun!”
In the evening, inside the third-year male dormitory room, Shirayuki, looking rather imposing, questioned Fang Li, “Is it true that you were attacked? I heard about it.”
Shirayuki had apparently rushed over without even changing her clothes, wearing her Miko attire. Seeing Shirayuki’s beautiful face getting closer to his own, Fang Li hurriedly said, “Although it’s true, there’s no need to worry. I can handle such incidents without any problems.”
“But… but…” Shirayuki said with great concern, “This area has been quite unsafe lately, and I’m worried that Li-Kun might have encountered a Butei Assassin.”
“Butei Assassin?” Fang Li was momentarily taken aback when he heard those words before he smiled and said. “Are you talking about the criminals who specifically target Butei?”
Classes like Butei were prone to attracting trouble. Aside from the fact that the arrest of criminals could naturally provoke hatred from vicious criminals towards Butei, it could lead to further trouble.
Butei Assassins were notorious criminals known for targeting Butei. It was said that many Butei had fallen victim to their attacks.
“But hasn’t the Butei Assassin already been arrested?” Fang Li asked in confusion. “I recall seeing it mentioned in the recent Butei High announcements.”
“However, we can’t rule out the possibility of copycat criminals,” Shirayuki said with unease. “Especially famous Butei like you, who will undoubtedly attract many people’s attention. If something happens to you, then I… I…”
As she spoke, Shirayuki suddenly started sobbing, and tears welled up in her beautiful, big eyes.
“Don’t cry,” Fang Li said with a bitter smile on his face as he sat down next to Shirayuki and patted her back to comfort her. “Rest assured, I’ll be fine. Whether it’s copycats or the real Butei Assassin, it won’t be so easy for them to take me down. Do you believe in me?”
“I… I don’t doubt it…” Shirayuki shook her head, wiping away her tears and smiling through her grief. “Yes, Li-Kun is so capable that even if it were the real Butei Assassin, you’d be able to apprehend them.”
Having heard those words from Shirayuki, Fang Li raised an eyebrow and asked, “Oh? Why is that?”
“Because before coming here, I performed a divination for you,” Shirayuki’s expression became serious as she explained, “Recently, you will encounter an event that will bring significant changes to your surroundings.”
“An event that will bring significant changes to my surroundings?” Fang Li frowned.
He had absolute faith in Shirayuki’s divination. This Miko from the Hotogi Shrine not only excelled in using Demon Path Arts with supernatural abilities but also had almost a hundred percent accuracy in divination. While she couldn’t provide the most direct results, like telling Fang Li exactly what event he would encounter, her predictions were highly precise in other aspects.
So, if Shirayuki said he would encounter an event, then he would indeed encounter it.
Moreover, this time, according to Shirayuki, the event would lead to significant changes in Fang Li’s surroundings.
Coupled with the unexpected wolf attack in the evening, an event that was almost impossible to happen, Fang Li also felt that his surroundings were quietly undergoing changes.
Before long, there might be a series of changes coming all at once.
“Starting from tomorrow, I’ll be going to Aomori Prefecture’s Mount Osore for a training camp. I’ll be away for a while,” Shirayuki said to Fang Li with great seriousness. “So, Li-Kun, please be careful.”
“I understand,” Fang Li extended his hand and gently touched Shirayuki’s soft, long hair, reassuringly saying, “Don’t worry; I’ll be fine.”
Shirayuki’s expression relaxed, and she noticed Fang Li’s gesture, causing her charming face to blush. However, she showed a content and happy expression.
What Shirayuki didn’t see was Fang Li secretly placing his cell phone behind his back. On the still-lit cell phone interface, an SMS was being opened.
“The blood of the Magecraft Master will be spilled on this land.”
— Butei Assassin.
